Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the impact of Richard Bentley, a classical scholar in the late 17th to early 18th centuries, on the world of scholarship. While best known for his work on Phalaris, the author also explores Bentley's editions of Horace and Terence, his lectures on the New Testament, and his role as Master of Trinity College, Cambridge. Throughout, the author demonstrates the depth of Bentley's insights, which revolutionized scholarship, particularly with his introduction of critical historical context to literary criticism, and set the stage for much of the work that follows in later centuries.
